A Clear Mind A Better Time

Capo: 1st fret Intro D Bm G D [Verse 1] D I was just thinking that while we’re still young Bm We should go and get married and live in the sun G D And keep our parents waiting and waiting for us to come home D I’ll make us coffee to keep us awake Bm And play you old love songs lost in the hay G D And you’ll never, never, never have to be alone Chorus Bm D E Bm We could lie G And waste your time D I’d make you feel better G Yeah, we felt so much better [Verse 2] D Remember the classrooms, the whitewash the slacks Bm The ceilings that crumbled from flawless to cracked G D The children sat quietly learning just how to grow old D Our friends were all brutal, our teachers were brash Bm But the shit we had to deal with in high school is passed G D And as long as you’ll feel it with me then I’ll feel it with you Chorus Bm D E Bm G Bm And if you can’t heal, had the last one steal Bm D E Bm Then I’ll show you love G Bm How we used to feel D We felt so much better G Yeah, we felt so much better [Instrumental] D Bm G D G x4 [Verse 3] D You’ll get tattoos of my name on your chest Bm Cause the things we know now are the things we’ll forget G D And some day you’ll wish that you never made commitments like that D And when I grow old and start losing my mind Bm Gm And tears they fall heavy and hot from your eyes G D Just remember the day that I let myself open to you G D Just remember the day that I let myself open to you G D Just remember the day that I let myself open to you
